So... a bunch of runners marathoned through my neighborhood the other day. The Parks Half-Marathon. Fifth year in a row. 13 miles of shin-splinting, meniscus tearing brutality. Well, that's the way I would characterize it, but about 2000 other people see it differently. Many actually find it quite the enjoyable experience! OK, then...
I went down there this year to see what kind of shots I could come away with. It was rainy and cool. The runners were amazing. Dedicated organizers and volunteers lined the course, which runs from Rockville to Bethesda, MD. Much of it through large swaths of Rock Creek Park. (hence, the name)
Good time. Photographs below:
